There is a rise in the number of films based on real-life characters hitting the screens and doing tremendously well. Arora has combined the time-tested formula of passion and dedication to charting out a brilliant career path that has been an inspiration for millions of budding entrepreneurs. The writers are currently working on the screenplay for the film, which is slated to go on floor by mid-2019.

“Biopic is an interesting medium to share one’s story with the world. I’m both excited and nervous to see my story unfold on the silver screen. I have full confidence on the makers of the film and I am sure they will present it in a way that inspires the youth,” says Trishneet.

The young man from Punjab said he was initially sceptical of his life being turned into a film but decided to look at the larger picture and gave his consent to the biopic. “Fame is a big responsibility and prompts me to work harder,” he adds.

While casting for the lead has not been finalised yet, producer Bohra has an A-list star in mind for the role. Trishneet Arora, a school dropout with a steely resolve is a cyber security expert, an author and the Founder and CEO of TAC Security.

In 2017, Arora was listed among the 50 Most Influential Young Indians by a magazine, while August 25, 2017 was proclaimed as Trishneet Arora Day by the Mayor of Santa Fe, New Mexico. He was among the Forbes 30 under 30 Asia list this year. — TNS
